Responsibility 199, what is it?

Responsibility 199 is a belief; I believe that to be healthy and to increase my longevity I need to weigh 199 pounds or less...
Responsibility 199 is a need; I need to reduce my weight, reduce my percentage of body fat, and the elevated threat of disease my present condition presents...
Responsibility 199 is a mission; I recognize that achieving 199 will be a challenge, perhaps the hardest I have ever undertaken...
Responsibility 199 is a commitment; I acknowledge that I must commit to action, commit to change, commit to myself and those I love to achieve this mission, to increase my longevity...
Responsibility 199 is ME.

Eating was excellent on Tuesday and exercise was minimal. Soccer practice in the early morning and a soccer game in the evening stunted my available time, well, I let it stunt it. After work when we got the game the previous game was 25 minutes behind schedule so I went next door and got some cardio in on Stanton Hill. Not my usual event where I do as many laps up & down in 30 minutes, didn't have time for that. But I did have time for about 1/2 of it before our game started. Planning more cardio this evening and more excellent eating today as well. Are you?

Karla was so kind as to honor me with a thank you by giving me a Happy 101 award. Thank you Karla! Nice looking award, look at them cup cakes. I like cup cakes, and they have sprinkles too! Zero calories if you just look, or if you try & lick them off of the monitor screen. Not that I tried, serious, I didn't.

OK, awards are fun, and awards have rules. Rules by definition are not always fun, but remember, these rules came with a picture of cup cakes, so I dig in to them with pleasure; the rules that is..

Congratulations on the award! A good friend of mine is a big fan of Harry Turtledove (he even managed to persuade a sci-fi-hating person like me to read 'Replay' by Ken Grimwood) so maybe I will give one of these books a try... :o)

Patrick, you seemed to have the eating thing down pat now. Good job! Karla gave me the Happy 101 Award too (Thanks, Karla) - but I have no clue how to post the picture or anything. I need a blog 101 lesson. LOL You are a hot sauce collector? Have you ever visited the Pepper Palace? You can taste samples before buying! They have a wonderful store in St. Augustine, and one in TN too. I think they are probably listed online, though I haven't checked that out.

Thanks for the award, I love cup cakes--did licking the screen at least get your screen clean?? On your list, the author immediately caught my fancy. I've already spend more than my daily alloted quota of time on amazon deciding which one I want to read first. Any suggestions? (missing be a librarian today)
